The Lyric Pub in City of London

Great pub with a traditional back street boozer feel. Nice escape from the hustle and bustle outside. Relatively small pub buy felt quite roomy on a Saturday night with lots of open space to stand in. A bit treacherous down steep steps to the Gents toilets! Great selection of beer and good mix of people. Nice community feel.

What a funny little pub in the Hart of Lester Square. But the Sunday roast was delicious there was was 8 of us and we all enjoyed our food. The service was great. Thank you

Welcome to The Lyric, a beautiful little Victorian pub in central London that offers more than expected. An excellent array of draught & bottled beer, fine wines & spirits, freshly prepared food & a very warm welcome.Located a stone's throw from Piccadilly circus in London's vibrant Soho, The Lyric is a local's pub in the heart of the city. A proper pub with open fires, well kept beers, great food, cosy atmosphere & great conversation.

What a great little pub right in the heart of the West End. Great barrel and keg selection. Warm and friendly staff. Lovely relaxed atmosphere. Can't say what it's like of an evening as I have only visited during the day. Always seek it out if I'm in this part of London.

One of the better pubs in the area but wasn’t convinced by there food

Cracking boozer. Wide selection of both Keg and craft on offer. All kept well. Decent bit of pub grub on offer too at reasonable prices. Will be returning soon.

In an area full of tourists it’s difficult to find a decent, traditional ‘boozer’. In my humble opinion this is by far the best in the area.Pretty small inside so it does get busy, but the clientele is more ‘those in the know’ than passing trade. Really great selection of well-kept cask and keg beers, also knowledgeable staff to offer advice.

TeeJay and his team are superb and welcoming. We love the ambience and the carefully selected craft ales and kegs. The selection is top notch and the bar banter fantastic. The General Manager really knows his ale!

I'm the kind of person who spends a lot of time figuring out where to go. When a friend invited me to London for birthday drinks in the evening, I couldn't turn it down. Coming in from Oxford meant taking the bus for a couple of hours, and I wanted to make the most of it, so a trip to the National Gallery was in order.To complete my trip, I wanted good beer and good food for lunch, and I searched far and wide to find an appropriate location near the museum. Fortunately, a search of "craft beer" in the area led me to The Lyric and boy, was it a good thing.This amazing pub has around twelve beers on tap and on cask (correct me, please). The beers were reasonably priced around £5 each, slightly less for cask ales. I had a yuzu pale ale while ordering the pork belly and the Korean friends chicken and, Lord, this food was an amazing treat!An actual brick of pork belly showed up, on a thick bed of mashed potato, red cabbage, and gravy. Perfectly cooked, incredible flavours, and a wide range of beers to go with it. I'll definitely be back for more food from this amazing little pub.

Super, super, super pub. Cramped, but one of the best beer selections in central London (12+ cask, 20+ keg - all micro/craft) - probably nowhere like it for miles around. Downstairs bar is a delight, it has air conditioning in the summer and a fireplace in the winter. A true gem. Staff are edgy yet kind and polite. Haven’t ever eaten there, but the food looks really good. I hope this pub lasts another 100 years. It deserves to. xxx
